India is a litmus test for any self-respecting traveler. Because in India there is everything, happiness, warmth, chaos, noise,. Incredible colors and extreme poverty.
India is a country that either you love (and you really love) or hate, but it certainly can not remain indifferent ...

Arriving for the first time in organized confusion of Delhi is to suffer a shock .. is a huge market town .. streets are polluted, crowded, invaded by that enterprising rickshaw drivers try desperately to grab new customers.
I see code kilometers invade the streets of our city, I do not understand at first what it is .. taxi driver tells me "a new movie" ... a new movie .. Hundreds of people queued, waiting for hours to see the latest film produced by Bollywood .. really all seemed unbelievable.
Now that the appeal of Hindi movies has convinced me, I can understand why that scene, Bollywood is not passive viewing .. is the total! I never thought that I would be skeptical converted into real experts in the field! Sometimes life is strange ...

After visiting the most beautiful monuments of Delhi, including the famous mosque that offers a frightening view of the city .. from the minaret of the capital is an absolute maze!
We go straight on at a time of Agra, a word that evokes the magical image of the Taj Mahal. The host city, however, is quite dangerous and annoying .. then we decide to leave the next morning on the way to Kajuraho .. stop in Orccha.
At this location there is virtually nothing to see, however, is a typical Indian village, relaxing, quiet, and people are truly magnificent! You can walk leisurely for its narrow streets and hear scenes from everyday life, the ceremonies in the temple, the market, or kids who are enchanted by a television audience to see their favorite actress dancing wrapped by colored saree.

A Kajuraho visit the temples and erotic sculptures made famous by the natural park just outside the city where, in the dry season the falls are not visible and everything appears to be a grand canyon rocks .. profiles emerge on the pond of crocodiles and the leafless trees contrast with the red rock.

And then Varanasi, Benares, the city of life and death, I ghat, steep staircases that go down to the Ganges, are full of crowd that goes to bathe in the waters of the sacred river carrying candles or small wreath of flowers. Besides, the burning funeral pyre and the flames are reflected on the river reddish quiet. E 'l'alba, the city is waking up ...
In the inland you feel lost, beautiful temples where you can stay for hours listening to the songs of the devout but also get to explain this culture that seems so different from ours. And 'all so fascinating .. but then .. returns again in contact with reality .. and with the deafening noise, confusion, extreme (the streets have no names!) than that which is far from Varanasi ghat and really heavy to bear.

Last days of the trip ... Goa and its beaches while relaxing, her mixed Indian food recipes Portuguese (colonization still feel) .. then take the leave India from the city most incredible of all: Bombay!
A taxi at night in the Marine Drive is a moment that will never forget, the couples strolling hand in hand, and on the other hand, the huge halls that are rented for weddings .. Signs of Bollywood glitter with lights and the women, elegant, go shopping in the beautiful windows.
Sure Bombay is also Asia's largest slum .. and a growing market unregulated .. But it is memorable, celebrated in millions of movie .. the bay glittering with stars.
